Capillary Ion Chromatography - Focus on Results. Uninterrupted.

Always ready

You need to generate sample results quickly and accurately, possibly around the clock. What if your ion chromatograph could operate without taking a break? Introducing Thermo Scientific Dionex Capillary Ion Chromatography systems.

What is Capillary IC?

Capillary IC is a technique where column size, injection volumes, and flow rates are reduced by a factor of 25 to 100. The technique can be used for most ion analysis applications, excluding those for polyacrylate treated water, borated water, metals and oligosaccharide analysis.

"Our
Capillary IC system is usually analyzing samples day and night. The one day a month that it is not analyzing samples is when I change the water for the mobile phase (eluent) and re-equilibrate the system." –
Alastair D. Bewsher, University of Manchester

"Capillary IC takes ice melting technology to a whole new level. Smaller volume injections require less ice which leaves more for other analyses. Sensitivity is also a major improvement. Limits of detection have gone down by an order of magnitude." –
